The Smart Mailbox Sorts Messages and Informs Recipients of Their Arrival

The Smart Mailbox is an innovative alternative to the rows and rows of metal lockers that you typically find in offices and apartment buildings. For a particularly large structure, you may need more than one of these, yet this cutting-edge letterbox does great to make message collection compact and the distribution process secure.

Yun Young Ho, An Young Gun and Lee Hyung Sub conceived a cylindrical compartment with a built-in computer and keypad. When the mailman feeds an envelope into the single slot on top, the programmed Smart Mailbox reads the name and texts a notification to that particular person. The recipient interacts with the innovative postcard vault by typing in his or her unit number. Combined with a password, the letter box has sufficient information to spit the correct correspondence from the slit in its bottom.
